The Ithaca College Writing Center, a free service available to all IC students, staff, and faculty, will open for the semester at 9:00 AM next Monday, the 29th of August.
The Writing Center aims to help students from all disciplines, backgrounds, and experiences to develop greater independence as writers. We are committed to helping students see writing as central to critical and creative thinking. In a friendly, comfortable atmosphere, writers at all levels participate in one-on-one conferences with advanced student and faculty tutors to work on effective strategies for all aspects of the writing process. Topics explored in these conferences may include o generating, focusing, and organizing ideas o understanding assignments and readings o comprehensive rewriting of drafts o sentence structure and style o grammar, punctuation, and spelling o research and note-taking methods o source documentation We offer these services for students in all disciplines: humanities and sciences, business, health sciences and human performance, communications, and music. In our conferences, we encourage students to develop confidence as independent thinkers and writers. This means that we will not revise or correct papers for students but instead will help them learn how to do so for themselves. Hours for the Fall semester will begin Monday, August 29, and are as follows: Monday-Friday from 9-5 and Sunday-Thursday, 7-10 PM. Our Annex (Smiddy 109) is open Sunday-Thursday, 7-10 PM. Appointments can be made by visiting ithaca.mywconline.com Individuals with disabilities requiring accommodations should contact Jaime Warburton at jwarburton@ithaca.edu or (607) 274-3599. We ask that requests for accommodations be made as soon as possible. |
